[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Umm, it seems that I wasn't sufficiently up to date on the episodes: at least "Memento" and probably others as well confirm that SGC [i]can[/i] get proper 3d coordinates out of the cartouche symbols, and can use them as navaids when piloting their fancy-schmancy new starship. But the symbols could still be Ancient alphabet, and a string of six letters, digits, pictograms or whatever is the way Ancients (or whoever really built the gates) wrote down 3D coordinates. The added seventh and eighth letters have separate functions, no more tied to "constellations" than the coordinate function is. And SGC has simply learned how to decipher the Ancient coordinate code, but not necessarily during the first two-three seasons yet. The knowledge could have come much later on, perhaps simply through sending MALPs and SG teams to as many addresses as possible, taking pics of the stars on the sky, and finding the correlations.
